If you haven't been following this awful act that will go into effect on 2/10/09, please read my post from 12/31/08. Please help us to keep this from going into effect!

A link to a letter that is already written with all of the pertinent information, urging your Congressman and Senator to help - it takes about two seconds to send out, and you can pass the link along to friends as well!
